Title: UPDATE: SQL Server 2005 Service Pack 4 Available
Severity: <Unspecified>
Fixlet ID: 20338
Fixlet Link: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/913089

Fixlet Description: Microsoft has released Service Pack 4 for SQL Server 2005. This Service Pack includes various updates and bug fixes to the data engine, database client utilities, and database client connectivity components. Additional information can be found here. 

Important Note: Back up your SQL Server 2005 databases - Before you install SQL Server 2005 SP4, back up the master, msdb, and model databases. Installing SQL Server 2005 SP4 modifies these databases, making them incompatible with pre-SP4 versions of SQL Server 2005. Backups of these databases are required if you decide to reinstall SQL Server 2005 without SP4.

Important Note: When you apply SP4 to instances of SQL Server that participate in a replication topology, you must back up your replicated databases along with your system databases before you apply SP4.

Important Note: Do not apply this fixlet to a failover cluster installation. Upgrading a failover cluster must be done manually. See the knowledge base article for additional information.

Important Note: There are known issues associated with the installation of this patch. See the knowledge base article and release notes for additional information.
